The Pill have released ‘The EP’, their debut and it features brand-new track ‘POSH’, first heard on BBC 6 Music earlier this week.
‘The EP’ brings together their recent red-hot run of singles that have put them firmly on the map. ‘The EP’ is their first body of work, and comes just over a year since their joyous and urgent debut single ‘Bale Of Hay’, a track that instantly grabbed the attention of key tastemakers. They quickly established themselves as one of the most exciting new duos in town, with tracks ‘Scaffolding Man’ and ‘Woman Driver’ setting them apart with their chaotic brand of DIY punk, whilst skewering social norms and taking aim at traditional gender roles with their vibrant nad hilarious lyrics. Live they are a sensation, bringing together cool kids and old punks and everything in between.
